Creating a site on Joomla

Joomla!

1. Looking for hosting with preinstalled Joomla

There is and another way - download the latest version of Joomla and install yourself. But if you did not do this before, it will be very difficult.
In any case, you need hosting and you should in any case look for hosting with PHP and MySQL support. And most of the hostings have a preinstalled Joomla, so why not choose ATTENTION when choosing a hosting? In addition, we are talking about how to just make a website. And if there is a preinstalled Joomla on the hosting, it means there is PHP and MySQL, everything you need, you do not even need to think about it.

Fantastico

If the hosting has an indication of Fantastico, then Joomla is there. On some hosting sites, as for example on Jino, there is no Fantastico, but Joomla and a couple more CMS are. Once on a hosting it is simply specified "the Set of scripts".

Unfortunately, not every hosting specifies when choosing tariffs for such trifles as Joomla. So do not hesitate to contact support and consult about the availability of preinstalled Joomla. Maybe you will promise to set it up for you.

Joomla Version

In many cases, as for example on Jino is the old version of Joomla 1.0. It is advisable to find hosting with the latest version of Joomla. The latest version at the moment is Joomla! 1.5.9 Rus. If you want while the old version, then update - it does not work. It will be very difficult to go.
The latest version you can find and download to the site www.joomla.ru.

I recommend hosting

1. Jino - very inexpensive and most flexible hosting,
2. Gudzonhost - this hosting is owned by the Russians in USA, it will be convenient for a small site, if attendance exceeds 2000 people per day, it will not pull such a load (I then switched to Jino), it will be more expensive than Jino, but there is the latest version of Joomla.
3. RBC hosting - good speed, a lot of space, suitable for a large site, more expensive Jino.

2. Connecting Joomla

So, you have a hosting with Joomla preinstalled. But it must be connected.
We go to the control panel of the site. It can be cPanel or some other.
In any case, there will be an opportunity to connect Joomla.
It is important to enter the correct email, it will receive information that should be saved. And select the root folder of your site, then your whole site will be Joomla, not a separate folder.

If you have any questions, please SUPPORT SERVICES. This is the advantage of paid hosting.
I can not give any more recommendations, everywhere the panels are different, I will not ship you.

3. Design

We do not want our site to be with the standard Joomla template.
There are many Joomla template templates, they must match your version of Joomla.Sometimes they are suitable for several versions, but this is a rare exception, we choose under our own.

There are templates

1. Beautiful paid,
2. Simple unpretentious,
3. Beautiful free.

I recommend you look for the latter.

What do we actually do?

Our goal is to find a template that we like and change the image of the cap in it so that our name and logo are there.
If you are familiar with web programming, then you can change the style completely.
